The Why Files: Operation Podcast

The Why Files covers mysteries, myths and legends. We tell stories and seek the truth in a fun and lighthearted way. Our content is heavily researched; we don't release an episode unless we're sure we can bring something new to a topic.

In December 1999, Sweden's most notorious UFO skeptic sat down for an interview that would challenge everything he believed. Ole K. had spent his career exposing hoaxes and debunking paranormal claims.

The being who called herself Lacerta revealed an underground civilization that had existed alongside humanity for millions of years. She explained humanity's true origins as a series of genetic experiments and warned of the imminent return of our creators.

From the mysteries of Derinkuyu to the truth about the dinosaurs' extinction, this story connects ancient mysteries to modern questions about human consciousness and evolution.

577: The Seventh Experiment: Lacerta Reveals the Truth of our Creation

Deep beneath Earth's mountains lie secrets that could reshape our understanding of human history and technological capability. Mountains like Shasta, Hayes, and the pyramids of Giza possess qualities that defy conventional explanation - perfect alignments, unusual magnetic properties, and inexplicable energy signatures.

Military agencies have spent decades investigating these peaks through classified programs, and witnesses report strange phenomena that science struggles to explain. Ancient texts speak of mountains harboring tremendous power and describe technologies that sound remarkably similar to modern energy generation and distribution concepts.

Some of these mountains contain facilities that seamlessly integrate human and non-human operations, suggesting cooperation beyond what official sources acknowledge. The evidence points to a hidden truth: many of Earth's most prominent peaks might serve purposes far beyond their natural geological roles.

NOSTRADAMUS. 

2022 Predictions: Earthquakes, Asteroids & Zombies? If you believe the predictions of Nostradamus and you enjoyed 2020, you're gonna *love* 2021. While many astrologers, seers and mystics are predicting a hopeful future. If you believe Nostradamus, you better start kissing your mommies and saying your goodbyes. 

He predicted that 2020 would be a "great trouble for humanity". Well, that was true. And he says a greater trouble is coming in the form of a global famine. According to Nostradamus, the famine will be the worst the world has ever faced and will ultimately end in a disruption of social hierarchies and state power. 

Nostradamus predicted solar storms will take place. He said: "We shall see the water rising and the earth falling under it". Then he predicts a comet or asteroid will hit the earth or come very close to striking the planet which will cause earthquakes and other natural disasters: "In the sky, one sees fire and a long trail of sparks." 

FYI, we did have a few close calls with asteroids this past year. And NASA's automated asteroid watching system -- called Sentry -- is currently tracking asteroid 2009 JF1. JF1 is around 130 meters in diameter. About the size of the Great Pyramid of Giza. This could hit Earth in 2022. 

Nostradamus predicted a great calamity would shake through the New World in the "Lands of the West" causing it to fall into the ocean. This is thought to be California. He suggested that this great calamity will happen when "Mercury in Sagittarius, Saturn fading". The date when Mars and Saturn will be in those exact positions in the sky is Thanksgiving Day, November 25, 2021. 

And the last prediction is a doozie. Two words: Zombie Apocalypse.

20: Earthquakes Asteroids Zombies: Predictions of Nostradamus

In 1924, Paul Amadeus Dienach had been teaching the German language in Greece. Dying of tuberculosis, he wanted to return home to Switzerland. Before he left, he gave hundreds of pages of handwritten notes to his favorite language student Georgios Papachatzis. 

Dienach thought translating his notes would help Papachatzis in his study of the German language. They said goodbye and never saw each other again. Papahatzis began translating the pages. There were whole passages about a coming nuclear war, colonizing Mars, and a global government. Sections about flying vehicles, holographic technology, and contact with alien life. Papchatzis thought it was a science fiction novel. 

But as more and more of the text was revealed, Papahatzis was shocked at what he discovered. This wasn't a novel at all. This was actually Dienach's personal diary. Dienach wrote about how he went into a coma and woke up 2000 years in the future. It seems that Paul Amadeus Dienach had experienced some kind of time slip that caused him to fall asleep in the year 1921, and wake up in the year 3906. 

He spent a *whole year* in the future. And he wrote down everything he saw. 

This is his story.

41: Paul Amadeus Dienach spent a year in 3906. He wrote down everything he saw.

Here's how it starts. Maybe it's your mother or maybe your sister. She starts complaining of headaches and strange tingling sensations in different parts of her body.

Her discomfort escalates. She complains of hallucinations; she starts hearing voices. 

Then the seizures begin. She has trouble walking and eating. And maintaining control of her bladder.

The seizures become violent. She thrashes around her bed for hours. You try to restrain her, but she suddenly has impossible strength.

Her moods become erratic. She swings between fear and anger and sadness. Her speech becomes ragged and deep. She has sudden outbursts where she barks out phrases in Latin and Aramaic; languages she doesn't speak.

Then, for no reason at all, the symptoms suddenly stop. And she's back to her normal self. Frightened and exhausted, but it's still her.

Her doctor can't find anything wrong with her. Psychiatrists and neurologists can't explain what's happening.

This scenario happens to hundreds of families every year from all over the world; of every different culture and religion.

And when this *does* happen to someone you love, and there's nobody else to call; you call an exorcist.

Shattering the Illusion: Exorcism and the Truth About Possessions

Edgar Cayce—the 'Sleeping Prophet'—discovered his psychic gifts as a child while doing peculiar things like sleeping on his textbooks. When sick, Cayce would perform self-healing while hypnotized. His uncanny ability to diagnose and cure ailments turned him into a reluctant medical clairvoyant. He helped thousands, yet doctors, family, and investors looked to exploit his talents. Cayce fought to maintain virtue. He established a holistic hospital and pioneered integrative therapies still used today. However, his benefactor abandoned him at the onset of the Great Depression. Later, Cayce's visions chilled, predicting events like WWII, JFK's death—and a coming global catastrophe that remakes continents and drowns billions.

Was Cayce authentic? There are doubters, yet he brought comfort and progress. His selfless character merits applaud regardless of his powers. The virtues he lived are what humanity needs now.

566: Compilation: Stories about the Apocalypse

In the winter of 1990, a small Bulgarian village became the site of a secretive military operation known as "Operation Sunray." Officially, they were searching for buried treasure, but the truth was far more disturbing. Deep beneath the surface, something ancient and malevolent was waiting to be discovered. The locals spoke of strange lights in the sky, mysterious vibrations in the earth, and whispers coming from nowhere. As the excavation progressed, the soldiers began to experience unexplainable phenomena—malfunctioning equipment, shadowy figures, and a growing sense of dread. The deeper they dug, the stronger the presence became, as if it was drawing them in. Despite the warnings of psychics and local legends, the military pressed on, driven by a desire for what they believed to be a powerful artifact. But what they found was not a treasure—it was an entity that had been sealed away for a reason. As the operation spiraled out of control, it became clear that some secrets are meant to stay buried. This is the story of the evil that lies at the bottom of the Tsarichina Hole.

568: Operation Sunray | Hunting the Entity in the Tsarichina Hole

For decades, a piece of his skull sat in a Russian archive - our most decisive proof that the most evil man of the 20th century died in 1945. When scientists finally tested the bone in 2009, they discovered it belonged to a woman under 40. The evidence we trusted for over 60 years was fake.

Stalin insisted the dictator escaped to Argentina. The FBI conducted their longest manhunt ever looking for him. Recently, researchers found a military submarine deliberately hidden off Argentina's coast. When asked to investigate, authorities said no. They're still saying no.

The truth remains buried in sealed files across three continents. But the bigger question isn't whether he escaped - it's who helped him. Because if history's greatest monster survived, he didn't do it alone. He was protected by a network that reached from Berlin to the Vatican to Argentina -- to Washington D.C.

576: Operation Eagle Flight: The Escape from Berlin to Bariloche

A mysterious data transfer lights up NSA monitors at 3 AM. Within hours, hospital records flash across Times Square billboards. Dating app messages spill onto every screen in the city. 

Bank accounts vanish. Traffic lights freeze. Autonomous vehicles crash through shopping malls. Intelligence agencies scramble as decades of encrypted messages suddenly unlock. Someone has broken the unbreakable - the mathematical foundations that protect everything from banking passwords to nuclear launch codes.

The quantum apocalypse arrives years ahead of schedule. But as chaos spreads, patterns start to surface. The timing seems too perfect, the targets too precise. 

Deep beneath the Pentagon, analysts notice something strange: some messages were decrypted months ago. The chaos isn't random - it's cover for something bigger.

578: The Quantum Apocalypse: All Your Secrets Revealed

What do Ponce De Leon, Alexander The Great and Jason Giambi all have in common? 

Superstitions. 

What are superstitions? Why do we believe them? 

Although there are a lot of weird superstitions out there, there may be psychological benefits to believing them. 

Let's find out why.
